GOVERNMENT STUDY...
According to figures published by the U.S.
Department of Health Education and Welfare,
"60.5 percent of all college entrants do not
graduate." That means that fewer than 6 of every
10 students entering college find their hopes
of graduating dashed to the ground.
WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN?
The shift from high school to college is one
of the most drastic experience transitions in the
life of a young man or woman. In June, he was an
adolescent, and was treated as such. In September
he is suddenly expected to function as an adult.
The student's test-taking ability, his ability
to cope with mountains of new material, are
challenged constantly, and from the very beginning
of his college career.
The student's ability to grasp new concepts
is also given a workout. In college, there is no
slowing down the class to explain something to a
slow student. College is much more competitive
than high school. Almost half of all high school
graduates never even enter college, and those who
do are usually the ones who had better grade (
averages in high school.
PREPARE YOURSELF IN ADVANCE!
The best way to beat the percentage is to
prepare yourself in advance. The Evelyn Wood
Reading Dynamics Course is designed to help you
do just that.
